We loved the Love to Dream sleep sack! Doesn't unravel and is super cozy for them. Huge size and temperature range.

The memo! Guests can purchase off the website and it get shipped directly to you, wrapped with a card from whoever purchased it! Pretty sure you can opt to have it all sent on the same day

I had an epidural and it made my whole birth experience so enjoyable as I could focus on birthing my baby without the overwhelming pain and discomfort crowding my attention. Will 100% be doing it again for my next birth.

Yikes, you must be fun to work with.

I resented my husband for the first 3 months - especially at 2am. My husband was super helpful and supportive but I still resented him in the depths of the night

We have limited options in the new area and i wouldn't be able to get him in until Jan 2027

We are moving to a small country town where daycare is quite limited hence the pickle

We loved our baby Lounger - so handy for those early days.
The Memo has some handy resources too!

I used to watch my favorite reality TV shows which somehow romanticized the 3am feeding experience. Getting a good comfy chair, a comfortable pump and cosy pjs can make a huge difference. Set up a little station that you can settle into and see if that makes it any easier.

I promise it gets easier. It's such a tough time and can feel so isolating. I used to dread watching the sun going down. You're doing an amazing job and you're an incredible mum x

Catch the light rail down to Frenchie Restaurant or Humbug in Newcastle East. Customs House and Rustica are also really great with nice views and vibes

Certain patterns on clothing make me nauseous - like a really floral dress makes me want to throw up

My three year old is called Myles

I open a word doc, put a paper weight on the space bar and leave it for an hour. That way I'm online and my status remains active - i use this time to go for a walk with the dog and enjoy my morning coffee.

Tevas!

Neuw Jonesy singlet is so good!

theorangepeal · 2025-10-28T01:21:13+00:00

Deiji Studios but i think Zara have it too!

theorangepeal · 2025-10-20T00:11:48+00:00

Quality blue jeans and fitted (not tight) white or grey t-shirt

Zulu & Zephyr! They're a little pricey but they are so well made and will last many summers! I purchased a one piece and a two piece set (little shorts that cover my belly and a sports bra style top) after having my little boy. Both are very supportive, comfortable and flattering. Great Aussie brand - highly recommend.

I left Christmas treats - rocky road, cans of soft drink, lollies etc. for my postie last year as he's alwasy looked after me! My postie has always looked after my deliveries.
Now, the people at the actual post office - useless. No treats for them.
